The storm was so loud it sounded like several fire hoses were aimed right at our house on full blast!
Usually during a storm like this I wake up full of worry....
*will it be the front or back tree that falls
*what is that noise....the leak in our room, the laundry room, the window leak...
I can't sleep for worrying about the financial damage the storm is causing!!
I love storms but over the years I have not been able to enjoy one of God's most fantastic entertainments!!
After this year's FREEDOM that I have experienced, I woke up about 2am this morning and I did not immediately stiffen with this gripping worry....
I was able to listen and enjoy the storm!
HOWEVER, my quirks kicked in...and I began to think about our garbage on the edge of the street....
During these types of storms, our street starts to resemble a small river....it was very windy....
I got up to....of all things....CHECK ON OUR GARBAGE!!!
I looked out of the window and...
My garbage instantly reassured me it had not blown over or down the street!
I got back in bed and Jeff asked sleepily, "what's wrong..."
As it came out of my mouth, I realized how stupid it sounded and I started laughing...
"I was just checking on our garbage....bwhahahahahhaha..."
Jeff didn't make a sound....guess he is used to me after all these years!
This morning....I looked out the window again before the city picked up the garbage and I swore I made a connection with my garbage can!!
It sensed you were looking out for it. Now maybe it won't stink.

I have never given it a "bath".. like my dad did ours (growing up)...I will now! Who knew those garbage cans had cartoon spirits...at 2am!
